Im due Nov24. Just starting right now.. Gonna be buying 1 major item every 1-2 weeks and some small things on the side.
We got a crib and mattress so far. Next major item would be a travel system. Then, gonna get some clothes, bedding, nursing pillow, breastfeeding items, few small diaper packages, infant bath and soap/lotion.

I would say October is super late I'm due November 9th and I've had all my baby stuff for almost 2 months although I would have as much if my MIL didn't go baby crazy she didn't think my husband would ever be a dad. Baby soap, lotions, I got a bottle sanitizer and a car seat base is a big one not all carseats come with one.

I'm due November 10th and I started a long time ago. I would say starting in October is late . You'll need a baby tub , pack n play probably , A swing isn't need but a lot of babies love them , baby monitor , diaper rash cream , depending on how your feeding I would get a bobby pillow , nipple shield , nipple cream , I would get a pump too just incase , storage containers , and the obvious things
